I can’t think of anything more 2024 than openly talking about having sexual intercourse with household objects but censoring the word “retard”.
funnily enough my (or your) instance filters out the word too
I switched over from your instance because of the censorship. It’s infantilizing to cross out or add asterisks to such words.
agreed
Nah that’s your instance. It shows up fine when I view it on mine, but when I go on your it does indeed say removed.
.world censored the full fag word
You mean gay? Or homosexual?
And why would they censor that and not “fag”, when the former are also used as neutral descriptions while the latter is almost exclusively used in a derogatory way?
And also, do I even have to point out how ridiculous it is to promote freedom of information while simultaneously selectively censoring certain words? That’s literally Russia levels of hypocrisy right there.
No I mean f a g g o t is censored. Which is doubly ironic since fag isn’t
Perhaps because it would upset British folks talking about their cigarettes?
Because 4chan is almost exclusively populated by 12-year-olds who think they’re edgy but also don’t want to upset mother
They’re mother isn’t on 4chan and they know it.
Also, nobody on 4chan actually censors that word, it must have been OP who did it, meaning they’re afraid their mother is on Lemmy reading 4chan greentexts.
By 12 year olds do you mean ACTUAL 12 year olds? Or 30 year old men who never mentally progressed past 12?
Awww
They went from ‘toasters’ to ‘a toaster’. OP stopped slutting it up and found the toaster for them. How wholesome
It was definitely there before the internet, too. You just couldn’t easily connect with other toaster fuckers.
No you couldn’t…I connected with em perfectly fine
You must be a toaster
Being unable to find a group of enablers to reinforce each other’s insanity is a good thing.
Having to have actual, real life humans as your social circle helps in actually socializing people. Like kittens who need other cats around to learn how to properly cat themselves. Without it they develop social issues or worse.
Sure, but it was internet that made these tiny scattered groups into large findable ones
Before the internet you would need to live near a proud and loud toaster fucker to find a group
Old furries in tech are in tech because they learnt and used early computer networks to connect with other furries
i dont think there would be as many toaster fuckers without the encouragement from a big community of toaster fuckers
The toasters:
The Toasters
I had one of their cassettes back in the day! If i recall correctly, the last track on the album was called “T Time”.
Guy was white before he met them.
Porque No Los Dos?
Don’t let the bastards grind you down
Good with either tbh
would.
she cute (the Asian one)
You should watch the show. Battlestar Galactica
I have indeed watched the show Battlestar Galactica and was very attracted to that character, or the actress portraying her. What a lovely everything.
That has to be at least a quarter of the entire Warhammer 40k community.
fuck up your life
You see, the thing about that is you always hear about the guy who jerks off to r/dragonsfuckingcars and then does a mass shooting, but you never hear about the guy who goes to work in the morning, does an adequate job, comes home, jerks off to r/dragonsfuckingcars and then goes peacefully to sleep
ಠ_ಠ
found the /r/carsfuckingdragons guy
which one are you ?
I am the car
Thats just the Cult Mechanicus, wait till he finds out about Skiitari femboys fucking toasters.
Praise the Omnissiah!
Omnibussy
Stupid sexy Cylons
Feels like I’m frakking nothing at all.
A metaphor for Alex Jones and his acolytes
and so many others online. there are so many very tight and close echo chambers, where people outright invent a new reality for themselves, and get angry, antagonistic towards actual reality
See: AntiVaxxers, NeoNazi’s, and Flat Earthers.
at least before social media these nutbars stayed isolated and alone and couldn’t get together and recruit / spread their messages easily.
Though, on the other hand, thanks to the internet we also have more positive spaces now…
Oh no, was After Dark a gateway drug?
I hate the censorship
Is he talking literally about toasters or using it as a slang for robots/androids?
It’s an allegory for any “extremely niche” interest that would have been considered super weird before these people could easily find eachother, although OP probably had furries and people like that in mind.
It’s 4chan. The dude literally wants to fuck toasters.
Like the cheap ones you get from the supermarket that break 3 weeks or the super expensive ones with very important blue LEDs on everything?
How do I know, mate? This is not 4chan, we’re on Lemmy. I want to
fuckinstall Linux.Anyone wanting to fuck the cheap ones is sick in the head.
They just wanted to fuck vacuums like a normal mechanoperv, but it’s 4chan
Yeah, I’ve mostly heard this mentioned in reference to really obscure fetishes that you’d probably never have a chance to indulge in if it weren’t for the internet.
I’ll take this one: It’s toasters
I remember an early wtf Internet moment for me on fark.com someone linked a car-fucking forum complete with diy “muffler cosies”, etc. Probably at least half joking, right??
OP did you censor this or did anon post it like this
It was like this when I found it
Probably got posted to Instagram at some point, they’re usually censored there.
Your life and your toaster
a fucking ramrod
